Now that she's back in the atmosphereWith drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, heyShe acts like summer and walks like rainReminds me that there's time to change, hey, heySince the return from her stay on the moonShe listens like spring and she talks like June, hey, hey

Tell me did you sail across the sunDid you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all fadedAnd that heaven is overrated

Tell me, did you fall from shooting starOne without a permanent scarAnd did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?

Now that she's back from that soul vacationTracing her way through the constellation, hey, heyShe checks out Mozart while she does tae-boReminds me that there's a room to grow, hey, hey

Now that she's back in the atmosphereI'm afraid that she might think of me as plain ol' janeTold a story about a man who is too afraid to fly so he never did land

But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feetDid you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?And head back to the Milky Way?And tell me, did Venus blow your mind?Was it everything you wanted to find?And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there?

Can you imagine your love fried, deep-fried chickenYour best friend always sticking up for youEven when I know you're wrongCan you imagine your first dance, freeze dried romance Five-hour phone conversation, the best soy latte that you ever hadAnd me

But tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet?Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day?And head back toward the Milky Way?Tell me did you sail across the sun?Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights are faded?And that heaven is overrated?

Tell me, did you fall from shooting starOne without a permanent scarAnd did you miss me while you were looking for yourself?

Nanana...And did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of dayNanana...And did you fall from a shooting star, fall from a shooting starNanana...And are you lonely looking for yourself out there?

For me, this song is the beginning of my life in fandom, specifically STARGATE. I first heard it when I was quite young one a stargate (team) music video. It now reminds me, not only of fandom, but of the show itself and what stargate stands for - the adventure to worlds other than our own, the things that are waiting for us out there and the lives that we lead here on earth. It reminds me of the friends I have lost in fandom now that that part of my life is over - some of you may even remember sg1-database and the years, afternoons and early hours we spent laughing with people we will never meet and those friends that I will always have. They are all good memories and only sad now that those times are gone.

Bittersweet Symphony (The Verve)

Delirium: Silence (Sarah Maclachlan)

Give me releaseWitness meI am outsideGive me peace

Heaven holds a sense of wonderAnd I wanted to believeThat I'd get caught upWhen the rage in me subsides

In this white waveI am sinkingIn this silenceIn this white waveIn this silenceI believe

Passion chokes the flower'Til she cries no morePossessing all the beautyHungry still for more

Heaven holds a sense of wonder…

I can't help this longingComfort meI can't hold it all inIf you won't let me

Heaven holds a sense of wonderAnd I wanted to believeThat I'd get caught upWhen the rage in me subsides

In this white waveI am sinkingIn this silenceIn this white waveIn this silenceI believe

I have seen youIn this white waveYou are silentYou are breathingIn this white waveI am free

The only song I hear when I am writing my novel - a novel that has been part of my life for nearly 8 years. It is about oppressed worlds fascinated by unattainable beauty.The Cup of Life - (Ricky Martin)

The cup of life, this is the oneNow is the time, don't ever stopPush it along, gotta be strongPush it along, right to the top

The feeling in your soul is gonna take controlNothing can hold you back if you really want itI see it in your eyes, you want the cup of lifeNow that the day is here, gotta go and get itDo you really want it (yeah)Do you really want it (yeah)

The cup of life, it's do or dieIt's here it's now, turn up the lightsPush it along, then let it rollPush it along, go, go, go

And when you feel the heat, the world is at your feetNo one can hold you down if you really want itJust steal your destiny right from the hands of fateReach for the cup of life 'cause your name is on itDo you really want it (yeah)Do you really want it (yeah)

The cup of life, this is the oneNow is the time, don't ever stopPush it along, gotta be strongPush it along, right to the top

The feeling in your soul is gonna take controlNothing can hold you back if you really want itI see it in your eyes, you want the cup of lifeNow that the day is here, gotta go and get it (yeah)Do you really want it (yeah)Do you really want it (yeah)Do you really want it (yeah)

Grew up in the 90's? Don't pretend you didn't rage to this.It represents my childhood - and the first time you truly become aware of world events (and ricky martin's unfathomable arse) and pretending to sing in spanish.

Can't Stop - (Red Hot Chili Peppers)

Can't stop addicted to the shindig Chop top he says I'm gonna win big Choose not a life of imitation Distant cousin to the reservation Defunct the pistol that you pay for This punk the feeling that you stay for In time I want to be your best friend Eastside love is living on the westend Knock out but boy you better come to Don't die you know the truth as some do Go write your message on the pavement Burnin' so bright I wonder what the wave meant White heat is screaming in the jungle Complete the motion if you stumble Go ask the dust for any answers Come back strong with 50 belly dancers

The world I love The tears I drop To be part of The wave can't stop Ever wonder if it's all for you The world I love The trains I hop To be part of The wave can't stop Come and tell me when it's time to

Sweetheart is bleeding in the snowcone So smart she's leading me to ozone Music the great communicator Use two sticks to make it in the nature I'll get you into penetration The gender of a generation The birth of every other nation Worth your weight the gold of meditation This chapter's going to be a close one Smoke rings I know you're going to blow one All on a spaceship persevering Use my hands for everything but steering Can't stop the spirits when they need you Mop tops are happy when they feed you J. Butterfly is in the treetop Birds that blow the meaning into bebop

The world I love The tears I drop To be part of The wave can't stop Ever wonder if it's all for you The world I love The trains I hop To be part of The wave can't stop Come and tell me when it's time to

Wait a minute I'm passing out Win or lose just like you Far more shocking Than anything I ever knew How about you Ten more reasons Why I need somebody new just like you Far more shocking than anything I ever knew Right on cue

Can't stop addicted to the shindig Chop top he says I'm gonna win big Choose not a life of imitation Distant cousin to the reservation Defunkt the pistol that you pay for This punk the feeling that you stay for In time I want to be your best friend Eastside love is living on the westend Knock out but boy you better come to Don't die you know the truth as some do Go write your message on the pavement Burnin' so bright I wonder what the wave meant

Kick start the golden generator Sweet talk but don't intimidate her Can't stop the gods from engineering Feel no need for any interfering Your image in the dictionary This life is more than ordinary Can I get two maybe even three of these Coming from space To teach you of the Pleiades Can't stop the spirits when they need you This life is more than just a read through

SCORE OF MY LIFE. THAT IS ALL

Chemical Heart (Grinspoon)

When you look for a ride and you need to get high my friendspend all your time just a walkin around insteadlike black rose its somebody to hold for them for them

lets go outside havin nothin to hide for freecan't seem to see the forest from the treesgrass is always greener but how do you know we'll see we'll see

forgotten maybe things are right on the other side of dawnbetter off wishin for the stars to kill the sunlike packed rows that nobody can hold no one no one

(Chorus x 2)

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

When you look for a ride and you need to get high my friendspend all your time just a walkin around insteadlike black rose its somebody to hold for them for them

(Chorus x 2)

yeah.(Chorus until fade out)

This has special meaning to me but I have never been able to place why. I always end up listening to it and no defining list would be complete without it. Especially with lines like, "better off wishing for the stars to kill the sun"
